Abstract

This paper examines the relationship between several cases of corporate governance and capital structure of companies listed on the stock market in Romania. The study covers the period 2010-2012 for 52 listed companies, non-financial companies. Concrete cases of corporate governance used are the size of the Board of Directors, the composition of Board of Directors, CEO’s duality - Chairman of the Board of Directors, the shareholder’s structure and typology. Recent work on corporate finance has two important aspects of corporate governance: agent conflicts and separation of control ownership.
